Warriors Split: Boys Use 34-8 Run To Dominate St. Mary's

After trailing 6-0 early, Neligh-Oakdale used a 34-8 run to turn the tables for a dominating win over St. Mary's on Monday night.

Rescheduled due to weather, the Warriors hosted St. Mary's and split with the Cardinals. The Neligh-Oakdale boys won 65-38 while the Lady Warriors lost 61-14.

Four Warriors shot 80 percent or better from the floor, including Grant White, who connected on 9-of-11 for a team-high 22 points. White made the Cardinals pay on five straight possessions during the first-half run thanks to great down-the-court passing from his teammates.

Tyson Belitz led the Warriors with six assists, seven rebounds and four steals. Zach Chance grabbed three steals while Ben Lingenfelter had eight boards.

The  Lady Warriors will be back in action at home on Tuesday hosting Niobrara/Verdigre.
